The first steps

The first
step

Thank you for
taking the time to view our website. We hope you have found it helpful and informative. If you think at this initial stage, Freemasonry may be of interest to you, and would like to know a more,
please feel free to contact us.

We will then arrange a convenient time for
you to come along to Twickenham Masonic Centre where we can meet on an informal basis and you will be able to ask any questions.

Getting to know
each other

After the meeting
and once you feel that all the questions have been answered then normally an application form is completed. If by mutual agreement it is then decided that your application should proceed, w will then
need to include the names of two lodge members who have met you. Once completed we would then ask that you meet with the Lodge Committee, again to get to know you more, and of course you to get
to know us. This meeting will still be friendly, but a more formal occasion.

Joining
the lodge

On the basis that
you and the members are content, your application will be formally read out aloud at one of the four main meetings. If approved, then after this meeting a date will then be set for your admission and
to join Ariel Lodge to become a freemason.

We will make every attempt to explain to you about each step of your journey. We appreciate it sometimes may feel a lengthy process but always worth the wait to
become a Freemason.
